It's very late Sunday night or early Monday morning depending on your perspective here "At the RIO". If you're here or have been here recently, you understand why I quoted it. (For those unaware, there's a somewhat catchy tune that occasionally plays throughout this place with those lyrics.)
I rolled back to my massive suite after a late night snack with NDJ. I finished up some work and thought I was going to get a great night's rest. Well for some dumb reason, I wasn't able to fall asleep. I tossed and turned for over an hour before I decided it was a lost cause. As I rolled around in bed, my mind began wandering all over the place. Suddenly, the old saying "You learn something new everyday" came to mind.
At this point, I was intrigued and began pondering my day. What exactly did I learn today? As I thought about this I decided to type it out and see where I ended up. Well here goes nothing!
I learned today...
1. The Sopranos series finale was a complete utter joke. What kind of ending was that anyway?
2. America's Team is officially dead in the American League Central.
3. An unnamed female was baffled by the constant moronic play at her table during the $1k Ladies event.
4. After several cocktails, Gavin Smith is able to get under the skin of one of the nicest guys in poker. (Gentleman John Gale)
5. Gentleman John Gale lost some sort of wager and his hair will be green before the main event.
6. JDN, I mean NDJ errrr Jason Hewitt, was able to laugh and joke after bubbling the HORSE event in 41st place. He said, he actually had a lot of fun over the 2-day event.
7. Gene Todd Bro (who cashed in the event) stated over and over again during the long "walk of shame" with JDN and I, "I'll never ever play f---- HORSE again BRO!"
8. The best game on FTP right now might be the $8-$16 and $10-$20 Omaha H/L limit game. Shhh, don't tell anyone.
9. American Bar and Grill has fantastic shrimp cocktail.
10. Shrimp cocktail and Amstel Light are fabulous together.
11. Back spasms suck really really bad. (I knew this already but had forgotten how bad they are)
12. According to a sign on the building, the Gold Coast offers 8 sessions of bingo daily. Say it ain't so!
13. The NBA should cancel the Finals...the fat lady is already warming up.
14. I thought I had a huge break-through score for my fantasy team today when Allen Cunningham won the $5k PLH event only for JDN to inform me that nearly everyone selected him. F that!
15. Pokerwire Amanda looks like Gwyneth Paltrow in some movie I saw. See PokerWired photo. Great photo selection Sir.
Until next time, SEE YA!
